Re: [arts-users] Polarized brightness temperature
Hi, The only way to get ARTS to do QV and QH automatically, is to use a "system" denoted as metmm. You find it in folder arts/controlfiles/instruments/metmm It is not totally straightforward to use and the documentation is not extensive. As far as I know, the documentation is basically the file TestMetMM.arts. The sensor definitions are found in sub-folder sensor_descriptions. Inside these QV and QH are denoted AMSU-V and AMSU-H. This assumes that QH and Qv work in the same way for all cross-track microwave radiometer. I assume this is true, but I am not 100% sure.

[arts-users] Polarized brightness temperature
Dear ARTS community, ARTS provides calculation methods for vertical polarization and horizontal polarization. However, many sensors are now set up with QH and QV polarization. I simulated the brightness temperature of a satellite borne microwave radiometer channel at 23.8GHz (QH polarization) over the ocean using a one-dimensional atmosphere, and the first Stokes vector I obtained was close to the observed QH polarization brightness temperature. However, the simulated brightness temperature of H polarization （instrument_pol, [6] ) was significantly different from the observed QH brightness temperature, May I ask if it is possible to simulate the QH polarization of spaceborne radiometers through the H polarization of ARTS? Is it still possible that I input other variables incorrectly? Looking forward to your reply！Thank you! Best wishes, Jiaan He
